Template for Drafting Newsletters

The templates outlined below is what we have been using as a guide for collecting news items for The Turing Way newsletters over the past years. These two templates have evolved greatly over the years and in no way claims to be the ‘perfect’ format. When reusing this template, you should experiment with what works for your community. Your suggestions in the earlier subchapters are very welcome.


# TTW Newsletter Title

Short description title for first line.

Longer description paragraph goes here that says a little bit more about the project.

Sometimes an additional description goes here.

As usual, you can find more updates and opportunities in the 'Community News' and 'Opportunities in _The Turing Way_ orbit' sections below. 
To keep up to date with community events, you can also subscribe to our [shared calendar here](https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/r?cid=theturingway@gmail.com). 📅

If you're interested in keeping up in real-time, don't forget that you can always join our [Slack workspace](https://tinyurl.com/jointuringwayslack), or join us on [Fosstodon](https://fosstodon.org/@turingway).
